Design for manufacturability (Integrated Circuits)
Design for manufacturability (DFM) refers to the general engineering art of designing products in such a way that they are easy to manufacture.
The basic idea exists in almost all engineering disciplines, but of course the details differ wildly depending on the manufacturing technology.
Here are examples: Design for manufacturability for integrated circuits.
